“Don’t blame Sanchez. I played there. Blame the idiots calling shots,” Edwards wrote. “Mark is a beast and will (prove) it when given a proper chance.”

He later apologized for the “emotional outburst” Tuesday afternoon via Twitter.

Sanchez was pulled late in the third quarter Sunday in favor of third-stringer Greg McElroy, who led the Jets to a 7-6 win over Arizona. Now the great quarterback debate — which was limited mainly to Sanchez and backup Tim Tebow — has a third party in the mix.

“Did the idiots throw the 3 picks Sunday?” one user responded to Edwards on Twitter. “Cause I swear it looked like Sanchez.”

Woody Johnson is in McElroy’s corner, according to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News. The Jets owner was thought to be a staunch Tebow supporter, though there is some question about the wildcat specialist’s health as he recovers from two cracked ribs.
